Brought to you in part by Windish Music Productions, Uptown and Windish are proud to present Frederick J. from the Philly Theatre Week show.

Philly Theatre Week is a new show hosted by Theatre Philadelphia, a 10-day event from February 8th to February 18th. It aims to give audiences the opportunity to try something new the theater community at a reasonable ticket price.

Uptown was invited to participate in this 10-day event that celebrates local artists, organizations, and audiences that have made the Greater Philadelphia area one of the nation’s most vibrant theater regions. Audiences will have a variety of theater venues to choose from, ranging from bigger and more well-known city theaters to Uptown’s newer and suburban venue.

“An example of the exceptional talent available to Uptown! patrons, Frederick J. The One Man Band transcends genres and generations with his versatile showmanship and musicality” — Uptown!

As a child growing up in Philadelphia, Frederick J. Raffetto always knew he had a love for music. There was just one problem: he didn’t know whether he wanted to be a drummer, a singer, or a pianist! This conundrum never went away, and his one-man band was born. Featuring an eclectic assortment of musical instruments, Frederick J. The One Man Band is a high-level performance of incredible wit, talent, comedic timing, and virtuosic piano technique. He is known as one of the highest-rated piano bar entertainers for Carnival Cruises, Holland America Line, and Howl at the Moon.

Tickets tonight are $15 and can be purchased online, at the theater box office, or by calling 610.356.2787.
